Ingredients
Scale
Fruit Mixture
- 4 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen) (600 g)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (100 g)
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (2 g)
Butter
- 6 tablespoons butter (85 g)
Batter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (120 g)
- 1 cup granulated sugar (200 g)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder (8 g)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (1.5 g)
- 3/4 cup milk (180 ml)
- ground cinnamon (to sprinkle)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) to prepare for baking the cobbler.
- Melt Butter: Slice the butter into pieces and place them in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Put the dish in the oven as it preheats so the butter melts evenly. Once melted, carefully remove the pan from the oven.
- Prepare Blueberry Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the blueberries, 1/2 cup sugar, and lemon zest. Stir gently to mix the flavors.
- Mix Batter: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the milk and stir just until combined to form a smooth batter.
- Assemble Cobbler: Pour the blueberry mixture over the melted butter in the baking dish. Spoon the batter evenly over the blueberries. Lightly sprinkle ground cinnamon on top for added flavor.
- Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 40 minutes or until the batter is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it cool slightly. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delicious contrast.
Notes
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries without thawing to maintain texture and flavor.
- Melt the butter in the baking dish to ensure the cobbler base turns crispy and rich.
- Do not overmix the batter to keep the topping light and tender.
- Sprinkle cinnamon lightly; adjust amount to taste for a subtle warmth.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for added indulgence.
